How many relationships have you been in?

[daviddaviddavid 772]

Depends what you count as a relationship. Somewhere between 1 and 3.

[Envy 6,000]

One IRL, two online. Now I only "kinda" count the online ones. Not to completely put down online dating, but neither of these ever felt very real to me. With the first one, it was back when I was a teenager and I never really revealed much about myself to them, I was very secretive. The second one, I just couldn't trust was for real, and I couldn't ever see it as anything for real in my mind.

True long term relationships? Four of them.

[Clawdeen 12,110]

I only count the one I had nine years ago as a real one. The others were just one offs that never went anywhere

[Treeglow Flicker 13,035]

None.

I've been in two. Both really did a number on my mental health, so I'm perfectly okay with being single.

Well.. this one was complicated. I “dated” this girl because I trying to make myself feel better after getting rejected by another girl I used to like. Also hoping if it would make  my crush jealous.  I did eventually broke up with that girl. I felt bad though,  if I could ever go back, I want to apologize to her personally.  But in a term of real relationship? none.

Well this could be complicated lol. Committed long-term relationships? The number would be 3, and that's counting my current and last relationship. But if we're talking flings? Quite a few if i'm honest. 

[Samurai Equine 45,939]

Wow. Let me see here...

It's not bragging if someone asked me, right? 

I've had 3 long term relationships, a rather sizable amount of short term relationships, and 2 childhood/young teen crushes that never developed into something more.
But if we're limiting the question to relationships that happened in-person however, 2. One was long term, another ended up being short term. Also, both of those crushes were in person as well, but nothing happened, which I do sometimes regret.

But that is all I will share. A gentleman shouldn't kiss and tell.

Surprised I've never responded to this thread until now.

I've not been in any relationships nor do I have any plans on doing so in the future. Yes, this does remain that I'm likely to remain a bachelor for the rest of my days, but then this is what I wanted to do because of knowing the negatives that can happen in a relationship.

Changing this to "somewhere between 2 and 4" 😊

Zero. It quite honestly makes me feel like a real failure in life. I am just so anxious and I never meet the right sort of women and even if I did I'd be too nervous to suggest a date or anything to them. It really sucks.

[ZiggWheelsManning 7,371]

Girlfriend relationships still remain at none  

[Retro*Derpy 3,081]

I have never been in a relationship!

[Evil Pink One 13,000]

.... 2 painful ones 

And 1 ongoing long one.

[EpicEnergy 22,089]

Like girlfriend/boyfriend relationships? So far none. Yeah I've been single my whole life so far, would like to have a girlfriend at some point but honestly I just want to be happy and feel positive feelings rather than a ton of negative stuff all the time. So like even just an irl friend would be nice.

[Twitchy-Tremor 281]

Never just friendship that almost all loose connection with with the exception of 2 friends. 
I have bad social skills 

[Spark Thunderbass 1,398]

I've only ever had one from school 13 years ago, though that was short-lived, and I've never really had anymore besides crushes on certain people I come across.
